I cannot speak highly enough of Shannon's, I was with them years ago, and had to make 3 claims through them, (none my fault)! They were awesome, and not much more expensive than "mainstream"...

It will be th Alternator. Mine went just before Xmas and had the Batt Light, Water in Filter light and the Brake light all come on.

I wouldn't recommend making your own there is a bit more in it than just cutting out a shape and bolting it somewhere'
@ growler not having a dig just saying , as its inviting backyard mistakes IMO....
